TOP TEN REASONS NOT TO PROMOTE TO PLUTOCRAT

by Hazed

The new rank went live yesterday and immediately a bunch of POs set up their own cartels. But was this wise? Some players don't think so, if you believe these top ten reasons not to promote to Plutocrat!

10. Leaving the Sol cartel and striking out on your own is very lonely.
9. Enduring the embarassment of *no one* requesting to join your new Cartel.
8. You have to put up with 14 other POs.
7. Your member POs are going to expect you to know what you are doing - oh, the pressure!
6. With so many Plutocrats looking for members, you're going to have to offer massive enticements to get POs to join you.
5. Having to get 14 POs to cooperate with each other.
4. Earning money by raising taxes on your friends.
3. Having to provide a place for all that traffic...and the resulting mess they leave.
2. Enduring constant complaints about the way your system name is spelled by those entering and exiting.

And the number one reason not to promote to Plutocrat is...

1. Finding something to do with all those extra groats.


Thanks to Caesar, Inferno and Logical for their suggestions.
